Oh, Shag! Along with the rest of your devoted fans, we want to jump into the shagalicious '60s world you create in every painting. Josh Agle, (whose last two letters of his first name and first two letters of his last name created his alias), is a painter, illustrator, and designer who will be chronicled in an upcoming documentary called "The Sophisticated Misfit" (you can watch the trailer here). He has a one-man show at the Jonathan LeVine Gallery, 529 W. 20th [10th/11th] 212.243.3822, November 18th through December 23rd, called "Shag: Donna Con Bambino."
